Controlling the size distribution of gold nanoparticles (NPs) is of great importance due to the fact that their properties are strongly dependent upon the size distribution as well as the size itself. In the citrate reduction method for gold NP synthesis, the citrate works as (1) a reducing agent, (2) a surfactant, and also (3) a weak base: it raises the pH of the whole reaction mixture. Here, we have extensively studied the all three roles of the citrate, by adding other reagents separately (NaBH4, CTAB, and NaOH) for the independent control of the three roles of the citrate. Among the roles of the citrate, that as a weak base was found to be the most critical parameter affecting the size distribution of gold NPs and the size distribution became much more improved with the increase of the solution pH, while adding a supplementary surfactant or reducing agent resulted in the formation of less homogeneous NPs.

반도체 공정 신호는 주기 신호와 비주기 신호로 구분된다. 특정 패턴을 가지는 주기 신호는 해당 파라미터(parameter)에 대해서 패턴 매칭을 수행하여 관리하는 연구가 진행되고 있다. 반면 비주기 신호 데이터의 경우에는 패턴 매칭 방법을 수행할 수 없다. 또한 반도체 공정에서 얻을 수 있는 두 개 타입의 데이터는 그 파라미터가 방대하기 때문에 현재 실제 공정에 적용되고 있는 방식인 각각 하나의 파라미터에 대해 관리도(control chart)를 구성해 관리하는 것은 많은 비용과 시간의 낭비를 초래한다. 따라서 두 타입 데이터의 여러 개의 파라미터를 동시에 관측할 수 있고 파라미터간의 내재된 상관관계를 고려할 수 있는 장점을 가진 분석 기법에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 주기 신호의 이상탐지를 위한 기존 연구는 신호를 구간으로 나누어 구간별로 SPC 차트적용 시키는 방법, 각 시점 마다 측정되는 값을 하나의 변수로 고려하여 Hotelling's T square, PCA, PLS 등과 같은 다변량 통계 분석을 적용 시키는 방법들이 제시되어 왔다. 이러한 방법들은 다양한 특성을 가지는 주기신호를 분석하고 이상을 탐지 하는데 많은 한계점을 가진다. 이에 본 논문은 다양한 형태를 가지는 신호의 특성을 반영하여 자기구상지도를 기반으로 신호의 분류와 공정의 이상을 탐지하는 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 자기구상지도를 이용하여 복잡한(고차원, 시계열) 신호를 2차원 상의 노드로 맵핑시킴으로써 신호의 특질(feature)을 추출하고 새로 표현된 신호의 특질을 기반으로 Logistic regression을 적용시켜 이상을 탐지 한다. 다양한 이상 상황을 가진 반도체 공정 신호를 사용하여 제안한 이상탐지 성능을 평가하였다.

A low melting borosilicate glass frit was used as an adhesion promoter, which enables $MnWO_4$to be sintered with in a reasonable sintering temperature range ($800∼1000^{\circ}C$). The glass was evaluated for glass transition temperature ($Τ_{g}$ X) and thermal expansion coefficient($\alpha$). Mechanical property (Vickers hardness), grain growth, the comparison of lattice parameter and pore distribution of sintered $MnWO_4$ with the frit were methodically discussed. As sintering temperature increased, a typical liquid phase sintering showed the rapid grain growth and high densification of X$MnWO_4$grain, improvement of hardness (until $920^{\circ}C$) and different pore size distribution. Resistance of sintered $MnWO_4$varied from 450k$\Omega$ to 8.8M$\Omega$ under the measuring humidify ranging from 30 to 90%. Thus, the results will contribute to the application of glass frit containing sensor materials and their future use.

A concession business at Incheon Int'l airport has achieved a huge success since its grand opening of 2001. However the duty-free market became matured due to downtown duty free stores and on-line stores. Thus this paper tried to research and suggest strategic planning of VMD at Incheon airport's duty-free after analyzing the relationship among the components of duty-free store's VMD, brand awareness, brand image and customer's loyalty. Components of VMD are constructed in harmony, attractiveness, trendiness and Trust, which are independent variables. In addition, brand awareness and brand image are chosen as control variables. Customer loyalty is also designated as a dependant variable. Focusing those variables, this paper tried to find out the effect of VMD components to brand and consumer loyalty. According to the research result, it is proven attractiveness and harmony have a significant positive impact on brand awareness and brand image. It is also found out brand awareness and image have a positive impact on passenger's loyalty on duty-free stores at Incheon airport.

In this study, the effects of change in ambient gas viscosity on spray structure have been investigated in the high temperature and pressure field. To analyze the structure of evaporative diesel spray is important in speculation of mixture formation process. Emissions of diesel engines can be reduced by the control of the mixture formation process. Therefore, this study examines the evaporating spray structure in the constant volume chamber. The viscosity of ambient gas was selected as the experimental parameter, is changed from 21.7 mPa s to 32.1 mPa s by changing in ambient gas temperature. In order to obtain images of the liquid and vapor-phase of injected spray, exciplex fluorescence method was used in this study. The liquid and vapor-phase images were taken with 35mm still camera and CCD camera, respectively. Consequentially, it could be confirmed that the distribution of vapor concentration is more uniform in the case of the ambient gas with high viscosity than in that of the ambient gas with low viscosity.

This paper addresses the trajectory optimization of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAVs) under multiple ground threats like enemy's anti-air radar sites. The power of radar signal reflected by the vehicle and the flight time are considered in the performance cost to be minimized. The bank angle is regarded as control input for a 1st-order lag vehicle, and input parameter optimization method based on Sequential Quadratic Programming (SQP) is used for trajectory optimization. The proposed path planning method provides more practical trajectories with enhanced survivability than those of Voronoi diagram method.

In order to evaluate the potential radiological risks for the reuse of the site after decommissioning of nuclear facilities, a mathematical model was developed and materialized into the Microsoft $Excel{\circledR}$ spreadsheets frame. A set of input parameter values was proposed, which is useful in the preliminary risk screening step before the detailed evaluation with the site-specific data. It appeared that the screening levels calculated by the present model was agreed with the derived concentration guideline limits resulted from RESRAD Ver.6.2 and the German dose criteria for releasing a nuclear site from regulatory control.

Tri-phasic pulsatile flow is the general flow pattern of human circulary system. In emulating the various situation of cardiovascular system, it is essential to make tri-phasic source flow. To emulate tri-phasic pulsatile flow, we used electro-hydronic style LVAD(Left Ventricular Assist Device) with glass phantom and rubber tube. We have selected control parameters and examined the changing effect of each parameter by using Doppler ultrasound. In this experiment, it was shown that the distal compliance and the break time were the major factors to form tri-phasic flow. The results make it possible to emulate and explain the various situation of human vascular system. In this point, this results will be an useful method in the clinic application.

This paper presents the analysis of the flight test data measured by the sensors installed on a four-seat canard aircraft. The inherent stall proof characteristics of canard aircraft was verified from the stall test. The dihedral effect, adverse yaw and roll control power were examined and the neutral point that determines the longitudinal stability of the aircraft was investigated. The dynamic characteristics such as dutch roll mode were also examined. Without relying on the parameter identification method, the aerodynamic derivatives or the relations between the aerodynamic derivatives were obtained by analyzing the steady state flight data.

In existing identification methods for on-orbit spacecraft, such as eigensystem realization algorithm (ERA) and subspace method identification (SMI), singular value decomposition (SVD) is used frequently to estimate the modal parameters. However, these identification methods are often used to process the linear time-invariant system, and there is a lower computation efficiency using the SVD when the system order of spacecraft is high. In this study, to improve the computational efficiency in identifying time-varying modal parameters of large spacecraft, a faster recursive algorithm called fast approximated power iteration (FAPI) is employed. This approach avoids the SVD and can be provided as an alternative spacecraft identification method, and the latest modal parameters obtained can be applied for updating the controller parameters timely (e.g. the self-adaptive control problem). In numerical simulations, two large flexible spacecraft models, the Engineering Test Satellite-VIII (ETS-VIII) and Soil Moisture Active/Passive (SMAP) satellite, are established. The identification results show that this recursive algorithm can obtain the time-varying modal parameters, and the computation time is reduced significantly.
